Provedor de dados: 80
Autores: Valdez-Velázquez,Laura L.; Olamendi-Portugal,Timoteo; Restano-Cassulini,Rita; Zamudio,Fernando Z.; Possani,Lourival D.
Abstract  Background Centruroides hirsutipalpus, of the family Buthidae, is a scorpion endemic to the Western Pacific region of Mexico. Although medically important, its venom has not yet been studied. Therefore, this communication aims to identify their venom components and possible functions.  Methods  Fingerprinting mass analysis of the soluble venom from this scorpion was achieved by high-performance liquid chromatography and electrospray mass spectrometry. Furthermore, the soluble venom and its toxic effects were evaluated extensively via electrophysiological assays in HEK cells expressing human voltage-gated Na+ channels (hNav 1.1 to Nav1.6), CHO cells expressing hNav 1.7, potassium channel hERG 1 (Ether-à-go-go-related-gene) and the human K+-channel...

A checklist of the scorpions of Ecuador (Arachnida: Scorpiones), with notes on the distribution and medical significance of some species
Provedor de dados: 80
Autores: Brito,Gabriel; Borges,Adolfo.
Ecuador harbors one of the most diverse Neotropical scorpion faunas, hereby updated to 47 species contained within eight genera and five families, which inhabits the “Costa” (n= 17), “Sierra” (n= 34), “Oriente” (n= 16) and “Insular” (n= 2) biogeographical regions, corresponding to the western coastal, Andean, Amazonian, and the Galápagos archipelago regions, respectively. The genusTityus Koch, in the family Buthidae, responsible for severe/fatal accidents elsewhere in northern South America and the Amazonia, is represented in Ecuador by 16 species, including T. asthenes, which has caused fatalities in Colombia and Panama, and now in the Ecuadorian provinces of Morona Santiago and Sucumbíos. Underestimation of the medical significance of scorpion envenoming...

Scorpionism in Central America, with special reference to the case of Panama
Provedor de dados: 80
Autores: Borges,A; Miranda,RJ; Pascale,JM.
Scorpionism in the Americas occurs mainly in Mexico, northern South America and southeast Brazil. This article reviews the local scorpion fauna, available health statistics, and the literature to assess scorpionism in Central America. Notwithstanding its high toxicity in Mexico, most scorpion sting cases in Guatemala, Belize, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Costa Rica are produced by species in the genus Centruroides that are only mildly toxic to humans despite the existence of ion channel-active toxins in their venoms. Regional morbidity is low with the exception of Panama, where an incidence of 52 cases per 100,000 inhabitants was recorded for 2007, with 28 deaths from 1998 to 2006. Taxa belonging to the genus Tityus (also present in the Atlantic coast of...

DISTRIBUCIÓN DE Centruroides edwardsii (GERVAIS, 1843) EN EL DEPARTAMENTO EN ANTIOQUIA, COLOMBIA
Provedor de dados: 37
Autores: CUPITRA VERGARA,Nelson Iván; CUBIDES CUBILLOS,Sergio; SALDARRIAGA-CORDOBA,Mónica María; ESTRADA-GÓMEZ,Sebastián.
Se reporta la distribución de Centruroides edwardsii (Gervais, 1843) para el departamento de Antioquia, y el área urbana de su capital político-administrativa, la ciudad de Medellín, Colombia, con base a material depositado en la colección del Serpentario de la Universidad de Antioquia (SUA). Se estableció dimorfismo sexual en C. edwardsii, mediante análisis de escalamiento multidimensional y el modelo ANOSIM, encontrando que los machos son más grandes que las hembras. Se reporta para el área zona centro y nor-oriental de Medellín una importante colonia de este escorpión, hecho de gran relevancia debido a la importancia clínica de este escorpión. Se amplía además el rango de distribución desde el nivel del mar hasta los 2200 m s.n.m.
